If it's timing belt then I'd say it'll be due soon.
Service history is key. Make sure all electrical items work and if it has air suspension make sure that's working as it should.
Steve and Gareth, pub trivia I believe seatbelt warning won't sound when cars in reverse as it's not a legal requirement to wear a seatbelt when reversing 🤔
Glad you got sorted. If you're needing c5 parts there's a good parts dealer in Peterborough on Facebook. The guys name is julius and he's a top bloke. Had numerous c5 bits from him.
You could try a head unit reset. But I'd suspect there's something stuck or the sensor to indicate there's something stuck has failed.
Am I right in thinking the cd player is in the glovebox?
If so it might just be easier to source a second hand unit off eBay
Your friend is correct. Start stop is quite intelligent, if the system thinks there a chance the car won't turn back on if it were to stop due to battery strength then it won't run the risk of turning off.
As I say I'd recommend you contact the motoring ombudsman. If you can I'd recommend you try and get it assessed by at least one other Audi dealer that's not under the same franchise as tour current one.
Or alternatively an independent ev specialist
How old is the battery?
I'd definitely look ok at getting this changed if it's more than 5-7 years old.
I'd also recommend speaking to an auto electrican
No probs at all, I find car buying is always a difficult process.
Regarding cazoo and similar sites I think they offer to bring the car to you. However I did hear stories of them selling crash damaged cars from a trusted source.
I'd always recommend looking at main dealer. When ever I compared them to private companies such as available car etc they were often no cheaper than main dealer prices.
Looks a nice car, but recommend you compare it to those offered by main dealer.
